Change Akron Now v. Akron Metropolitan Housing Authority is a federal lawsuit filed with the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio on behalf of those supporting the Don Plusquellic recall in Akron, Ohio.

The suit alleges that a petitioner who was seeking signatures on her recall petition on public property (a housing development, the Akron Metropolitan Housing Authority) was asked to leave, thus violating her First Amendment rights.[1]
